4) How did the workshops affect your perspective of the topic that was discussed?
I understand we should be so negative or too opstic about our problems. We should think like an adult. Comlpaining is not the right way to solve problems in college. Professors have their guidelines and our friends have their own thoughts. In college, when problems are taking place, we should really taking every factors into account rather than only thinking about what you want.
5) How did the workshop take you out of your comfort zone?
Some students think they can go to freshman semiar office for any problems that happen to them, but actually, before doing so,we should talk the problems in person with who is directly relating. Then we can state the problems to adviser, so they can help us better. the workshop take you out of your comfort zone by telling me that we should always think about what we should do rather than complaining to freshman semiar right away.
6) Explain what the workshop was about and tell us why you specifically chose that workshop.
I chose this workshop because I wanna know more about how to communicate and dealing with people. Especially in college, it is normal for us to have conflict with no matter friends or prof. because we’ve become matured and have our own ideas. When these conflicts come up, we should handle them well-preparedly. Plus, I am really straight forwars and bad at dealing with problems. And I thought this workshop will help me with that.
